eTransmit does not bind xRefs

[阿黄狗]

With the following code, can not bind xrefs，I don't know why?

[CommandMethod("TESTETRANSMIT2022")]
public static void ETransmitDwg2022()
{
    TransmittalOperation tro = new TransmittalOperation();
    TransmittalInfo ti = tro.getTransmittalInfoInterface();
    ti.BindType = BindType.eBind;
    ti.depathXrefs = 1;
    ti.destinationRoot = "D:\\TransmittalSet\\";
    ti.saveVersion = SaveDwgFormat.eNoConversion;
    ti.visualFidelity = 1;

    ti.purgeDatabase = 1;
    ti.resetPlotter = 1;

    ti.includeDataLinkFile = 0;
    ti.includeDGNUnderlay = 0;
    ti.includeDWFUnderlay = 0;
    ti.includeFontFile = 0;
    ti.includeImageFile = 0;
    ti.includeMaterialTextureFile = 0;
    ti.includeNestedOverlayXrefDwg = 0;
    ti.includePDFUnderlay = 1;
    ti.includePhotometricWebFile = 0;
    ti.includePlotFile = 0;
    ti.includeUnloadedReferences = 0;
    ti.includeUnloadedXrefDwg = 0;
    ti.includeXrefDwg = 0;

    TransmittalFile tf = null;
    string dwgFile = @"D:\新建文件夹\Drawing2.dwg";
    AddFileReturnVal val = tro.addDrawingFile(dwgFile, out tf);
    tro.createTransmittalPackage();
}

hi

according to IncludeXrefDwg Property (ActiveX/ATO) Autocad Documents maybe you need to change this line:

    ti.includeXrefDwg = 0;

to

    ti.includeXrefDwg = 1;

[阿黄狗]

change the line " ti.includeXrefDwg = 1;"  also  didn't work ; 

[ehsan_bahrani]

sorry maybe i misunderstand what you want to do.

binding a xRef is complitly different from eTransmit, in other word you have to do this tasks seperately, maybe you need first bind xRef and after that try to eTransmit.

for binding you can use this documentation.

[daniel_cadext]

you can use TransmittalAddFileNotificationHandler, or another Transmittal event  to preprocess  stuff.

I try it like this,but also not work; the database can not change;

Thank you for your answer, I just want to replicate that function in the picture;I wonder how autocad is implemented , use eTransmit and Bind Dwg Files

[daniel_cadext]

Well, that’s a bummer, wondering if you need to save the drawing so etransmit sees the changes

[阿黄狗]

but the NotificationHandler can only get database, the AcadDatabase can not save, only AcadDocument can save; so use database(AcadDatabase ) can not save the drawing;

[daniel_cadext]

So, somehow you need to get the .NET version of the database, which does have a saveas method.

ARX has a global function acdbActiveDatabaseArray, I don’t know if there’s a .NET equivalent.

Or maybe there’s a way to get a .net instance of the database from COM
